Events and flashbacks.

**Finally, a day without monsters.

But, it's not like all the problems are over with. Val moves out of bed and... just about falls out of it. There's a nice thud in the house, and a very young yelp. The journal flips to the floor just the same.**

Oh my... this again? Can't have a day's peace, can we? Well, I always thought I was a cute child.

Mmm, I'm Kirimi's size again. I'll have to see about borrowing some of her clothes for now. I just might go see everyone anyway.

**And so, after getting dressed properly, a girl of short stature and floor-trailing hair is wandering about, floating on a nice breeze. (Looks surprisingly like this girl though.) Anyone is encouraged to interrupt her adventure to see anyone she knows (Golbez, Nel, Ceodore, Charlotte)

[There's a Nami lurking on a newly-repaired footbridge, glancing thoughtfully down at the water. Looks normal as always.]

**Cute lil Val floats over and sits herself on the railing beside her. She puts on her best cute act.**

You look really sad lady? What's wrooong?

[mikangirl.livejournal.com]

[Fffff, floating child. Though not as strange as other things in town, and she knows a woman who ...

...Val? No. She'd say something if that were the case, wouldn't she?]

Huh? Nothing. I'm just thinking.

[aero-dienamic.livejournal.com]

**Oh, Val's just abusing her newfound cute. And the fact that nobody recognizes her immediately.**

What're you thinking about, miss? Is one of your friends missing. **She really means herself...**

[mikangirl.livejournal.com]

In this place? Always.

[....dot dot dawt.]

...do I know you?

[aero-dienamic.livejournal.com]

Likely, not like this, but, we've flown together enough times that I'd hope you wouldn't forget me.

Which one of them is missing, Nami dear~ **Val moves from the railing to float out in front of Nami.**

[mikangirl.livejournal.com]

Val? [Oh ffff. You make a cute kid, but WHY. This place.] But you remember being an adult, I see.

[aero-dienamic.livejournal.com]

This has happened before. I think I'm one of few who haven't had their mind altered. It's made it quite fun to mess with some others.

But, something has you distraught. What's the matter dear?

[mikangirl.livejournal.com]

Ah. Nothing much. Just...everyone is different this week. It's hard to take in.

[aero-dienamic.livejournal.com]

Tell me about it. Kirimi's completely changed. As has my father, and a few notable others.

I suppose I'm lucky, with only my body having changed.

[mikangirl.livejournal.com]

...Yeah, I think so. Having your mind change as well could be really bad in some cases.

[...]

Well. I'm glad you're still you under there.

[aero-dienamic.livejournal.com]

Though, I wouldn't be aware of it if I wasn't. I'd just be some cute little girl approaching you.

Maybe, you're in need of a little cuteness? A... hug maybe? Aren't cute things supposed to be comforting?

[mikangirl.livejournal.com]

[ffff, that's kind of adorable, actually.

....]

Hugs are pretty comforting, actually.

[Translation: yes, she'll take one ;;]

[aero-dienamic.livejournal.com]

**Lil Val floats over and gives Nami a hug. Then adjusts herself so that Nami, HAS to hold her. After all, she probably wouldn't want all that wind blowing right against her**

[mikangirl.livejournal.com]

[Yay hug! And--oof. Wasn't quite expecting that, but eh. She'll go with it.] It's so weird seeing you so small.

[aero-dienamic.livejournal.com]

It's certainly different, but, I'm not complaining. I haven't lost any of my looks and... It made for an interesting talk with my father.

[mikangirl.livejournal.com]

Your father...?

[But aren't you-- wait, casting her mind back to much, much earlier conversations.]

...Golbez, was it?

[aero-dienamic.livejournal.com]

Right.

[mikangirl.livejournal.com]

Huh. What sort of talk?

[aero-dienamic.livejournal.com]

He remembers things completely different than I do. Like... he was trying to save the world. And that I'm his daughter by blood, not by vicarious creation.

[mikangirl.livejournal.com]

There's a lot of people different this week. Two of my crew are now girls.

[Sidelong glance.] Which do you prefer?

[aero-dienamic.livejournal.com]

While, it was interesting, and we did have a nice father-daughter moment, I think I prefer his usual self.

[mikangirl.livejournal.com]

Mmm.

Give it time. Hopefully things will go back to normal.
